Amsterdam coronation riots

Major violence and rioting took place in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, on the day of the accession of Queen Beatrix, 30 April 1980. It was one of the biggest episodes of such disturbances in the country since the end of World War II in Europe and the most significant event of the Dutch squatters' movement (Krakersrellen).
